Why I’m doing Jeans for Genes

I have signed up again to fundraise for Jeans for Genes Day because of my personal connection to the cause and the impact it has on the lives of children with genetic conditions. My son Jax was born with a rare brain condition called Lissencephaly. When he was diagnosed, doctors knew very little about his condition and gave him a life expectancy of just 2-10 years. Today, Jax is 11 years old and thanks to ongoing research, we have more information and resources to support him.

Jax faces numerous challenges daily. He uses a wheelchair, eats through a tube in his tummy and suffers from seizures. Despite these obstacles, he has an incredible spirit and brings immense joy to everyone who meets him. The funds raised through Jeans for Genes Day go directly to research that seeks to understand, treat and ultimately find cures for genetic disorders like Jax's.

Over the past 9 years, with the support of the TSD team at Queensland Rail, the Rail, Tram and Bus Union and so many generous donors, we've raised over $40,000. This money has been crucial in advancing research and offering hope to families like ours. Every dollar raised makes a significant difference, providing better outcomes and brighter futures for children affected by genetic conditions.

Fundraising for Jeans for Genes Day is not just about supporting my son; it’s about supporting all children who are born with serious genetic conditions. 1 in 20 kids are affected and together, we can help fund the research needed to find treatments and cures. Your donations contribute to life-changing research and give hope to countless families.

Thank you for joining me in supporting this important cause.
